The Presidency described as irrelevant the reported endorsement of the People’s Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the Feb. 16 general elections by some socio-cultural groups in the country.
Five socio-cultural groups including the Northern Elders’ Forum (NEF), Afenifere, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) and Middle Belt Forum (MBF) had endorsed PDP presidential candidate for the forthcoming presidential candidate.
But, presidency dismissed the position of the groups, saying that the PDP was only hiding in the bunker of ethnicity to avoid its inevitable defeat.
